a neat calcuator. On the indredients, you have to choose dry or wet. I think for butter, I would chose wet.
These sites convert grams to appropriate units of volume measurement.

thank you!
Sure! To convert the ingredients from ounces to cups or tablespoons, we need to know the equivalent volume of each ingredient in those units. Here are the approximate conversions you can use:
1 cup of butter = 16 tablespoons = 8 ounces (226 grams)
1 cup of superfine (castor) sugar = 16 tablespoons = 7 ounces (200 grams)
1 cup of self-raising flour = 16 tablespoons = 5.3 ounces (150 grams)
Based on these conversions, here's the recipe converted to cups and tablespoons:
Butter - softened:
- 5 ounces (150g) ≈ 5/8 cup (10 tablespoons) + 2 teaspoons
Superfine (castor) sugar:
- 5 ounces (150g) ≈ 2/3 cup (10 tablespoons) + 2 teaspoons
Self-raising flour:
- 6 ounces (175g) ≈ 3/4 cup (12 tablespoons)
Please note that these are approximate conversions, and it's always best to use a kitchen scale for more accurate measurements.
